Genkai-nada Squid and Ocean Bounties

Munakata is renowned for its premium seafood, freshly harvested from the rough

waters of the Genkai-nada Sea. The highlight is the exceptionally sweet and

translucent ‘Ika’ (squid), served in the traditional ‘Ikezukuri’ style to ensure peak

freshness.

The restaurant takes great pride in transforming this bounty into exquisite seafood

dishes, where the natural flavors of the ocean are the true stars of the meal.
